Fast-food strikes aim at 100 cities

Yea I worked one for about 6 months, them found a job that payed better and had longer hours. I worked hard and showed up everyday and soon after I worked almost 40 hours every week.

I was in high school and most of my coworkers were to. Half of them did have pretty horrible work ethic so it wasn't really hard to stand out.

 

Last one is the best.

oh god that ladies screams haha

 

was he beating them with a golf club? I couldn't help but laugh when that lady was screaming.

 

It looked like the bar to clean the fryer drain.

 

I would of done the same thing. Looks like self defense, the customer jumped the counter and went after him. The additional 5 swings after they were down was a little excessive, but that was him collecting his interest up front.

 

I bet those people will think twice about jumping over a counter again, doesn't seem excessive some people learn lessons better if pain is inflicted on them.

 

Nah he was just following through. good form.

 

Looked it up and the guy had a record and was on parole, but the charges.were dropped.

 

Wow this thread certainly took some deviations...

 

The minimum wage is a lesson in life. If you want more, then you will have to do more, learn more, etc.

Many teachers here in the west do not make $15.00 per hour and for the most part they have college degrees.

At the minimum wage of $15.00 per hour, many teachers and other underpaid grads will be applying for the jobs currently held by the fast food workers.

As someone else stated "if you want more you have to do more, learn more...."

We all make decisions that impact our lives. I should not have to pay for the poor decisions made by someone that opted not to do more or learn more.

 

You have teachers that gross under $30K a year ?

Homemade tamales from mexican lady with cooler wandering around neighborhood.

Absolutely. Teachers in unions usually make that or more, but in some areas, they are severely underpaid. Alot of people say student performance should mirror teacher pay, but, I have friends who teach, and they use their own cash to pay for stuff used in school. Our school system is in scary shape right now.

 

You have teachers that aren't unionized ?

 

alot of people here arent unionized

 

In California and other states it's optional. There are a few states that dont allow them. I think virginia, texas, the carolinas. Of course, I can be wrong on those states, but yeah, some dont want to be unionized.

 

From a few years ago, but the starting teacher salary in TX was about $38K per year with summers off (with a degree and teaching certification).
